Title: AD Snapshot Tool (ADST) - how useful is it?
The ADST has no direct ties to PSS; it was created by a different organization within Microsoft.  It is not a glorified MPSReports, if that's what you're thinking.  It collects a myriad of data about the configuration of the replication topology, DC's, replication status, FRS status, GPO's, DNS, WINS, database, etc.  It includes almost 200 rules to identify various items in the data to help ease troubleshooting of them.
 
It is only available through the ADRAP (which is only conducted by the group who wrote the tool).

LOL.
 
So it's the old PSS scripts wrapped in a web based UI? :)
 
Does that constitute a risk assessment??

Importance: Low

Is it useful at all? We are doing the ad risk assessment from microsoft (adrap) - anyone has experiences or is using them extensively? Seems to be gui mode only?

Thank you and have a splendid day!
